    I have always used my own router and moderm. If you dont want to pay extra $7 just get one of your own. You can always move with it

    Speeds get bottlenecked. Even with all of the firewalls down the channels are inconsistent. I love the easy access for settings but just not impressed.

    its a decent router/ modem combo for the price, however the upload speed can realistically only hit sub 600 mbps

    Major parental controls flaw!

    Purchased to replace a Zoom modem (which died after about 5 years) and a Linksys EA7300 router (which was only about two years old but did not play nicely with Roku while streaming SlingTV - crashes because very commonplace). This Motorola mg7550 has considerably less signal penetration and strength compared to the Linksys it replaces. But most importantly, when you try to enable parental controls, the download speed drops to <1Mbps!! And that is for ALL devices, not just the ones under parental control. A phone call to Motorola tech support resulted in being placed on hold. Ten minutes later a recording stated that my call would be answered in approximately 60 minutes. I wasn't sure I had heard it correctly, so I continued to hold. Approximately 5 minutes later another recording stated that my call would be answered in approximately 75 minutes. This time I knew that i heard it correctly, so I hung up! I called back a few hours later, and the wait time was 85 minutes. I went to the Motorola web site and sent an email explaining the problem. Two days later i finally got a response which stated, "Engineering is aware of the issue and is looking into it. With covid happening we have to time frame for a fix." I really find this unacceptable, and I'm probably just going to return it. I'm not sure when this model first came on the market, but i'm sure it has been long enough for them to identify and fix this issue.

    I've had this unit for about 4 months now, and it's been great. Strong wifi signal that never drops, and I love the fact that it has dual-band channels.

    We have used Motorola for roughly 5 years. Comcast charges too much for their equipment so we just buy our own.

    In the past I've had the worst luck with modems. They never seem to last one year. I'm giving this one a try but I also got the extended protection plan. We'll see how it goes.
